Popsicle
Wait till you learn about this company’s extraordinary history! When an 11-year-old boy from Oakland, California, unintentionally left his drink outside overnight with a stick in it, he devised the Popsicle recipe. When he went back to grab it, he saw that the water inside had frozen solid. When Francis Epperson was an adult, he made it known to the rest of the world. Joe Lowe bought the rights to the song when it became an instant smash for him. Following that, the man expressed regret for his actions and acknowledged that he had deteriorated in the intervening years. Good Humor purchased the popsicle in 1989, while it was still a division of Unilever. As a result, it is now a subsidiary of the English-Dutch parent corporation, which also controls the other brands.
Purina
Purina began feeding farm animals in 1894, when George Robinson, William H. Danforth, and William Andrews founded the company. Inadvertently, their idea turned out to be a commercial success. Despite the fact that Nestle is better known for its food than its pet food, it purchased Purina in December 2011 for $10.3 billion. Purina and Friskies PetCare, the company’s pet food division, merged, prompting this decision. Purina, on the other hand, is still a household name in the United States and around the world.
